Review # 2 was written on 2018-03-08 00:00:00 Jason Holland In the book, Lone Cowboy by Will James, he talks about his life growing up in the old west in the late 1800s. It's a novel to get a picture of what a cowboy's daily life and background were truly like in the period of U.S.history when ranches were a big part of the western scene. The sketches by James add much charm and character to the book so that we can see just exactly what he was talking about in his story. A really unique aspect that I enjoyed was as a cowboy he draws in his readers with his cowboy voice and way of language like you are on the journey with him. James lived a life of a trapper and a rancher growing up in Canada, Montana and throughout the US. One thing that really was hard to grasp was where and when he was because he bounced around all over the place doing rodeos and ranching or when he goes to jail. Over all this was a very informational and fun book to follow and see the illustrations that he did himself while he was growing up throughout his life.
